Johnston’s mangabey (Lophocebus johnstoni) is a species of crested mangabey in the Cercopithecidae family. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the gray-cheeked mangabey (L. albigena),[1] but recently (2007) was given the status of species by Groves, with Osman Hill's mangabey (L. osmani) and the Uganda mangabey (L. ugandae).[2]
